What is Ascends Natural Medicine?
Ascends Natural Medicine is a naturopathic clinic with locations in Gilbert and Casa Grande, Arizona. It is run by Dr. Lakshmi Nandyala, NMD, a licensed naturopathic doctor who has practiced in Arizona since 2013. The clinic is mainly a naturopathic medicine practice, offering acupuncture, ozone therapy, prolotherapy, platelet rich plasma therapy, thyroid and neuropathy treatment, and medspa services alongside bio-identical hormones and a medical weight loss program. For weight loss, it states it may recommend FDA-approved medications such as semaglutide alongside its broader naturopathic approach to diet, metabolism and hormonal health.
This listing is for its Gilbert office at 633 E Ray Rd STE 133 BLDG 8.
What does it cost?
No prices are published for the weight loss program, hormone therapy, or any other service. It does not say whether a monthly fee would include medication, what a follow-up visit costs, or whether it accepts insurance. It does advertise a free consultation, reachable by calling (480) 253-9533. Ask directly about cost structure, since nothing is listed online for either location.
What should you ask before you book?
Ask whether Dr. Nandyala is the one who evaluates you and signs any prescription, since she is the only prescriber named. Ask whether semaglutide, if recommended, would be brand-name or compounded, and what it costs separately from any visit or program fee. Ask what lab work is required before starting hormone therapy or weight loss treatment, and what those labs cost. Ask about cancellation terms if you are asked to commit to a program length. If you plan to use the Casa Grande address, confirm which phone number and prescriber apply there, since the two locations list separate contact numbers.
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you want a naturopathic doctor who treats weight loss as one part of a broader look at hormones, metabolism and lifestyle, rather than a clinic built solely around a single medication. It is less of a fit if you want published pricing or a straightforward medication-only protocol before you ever pick up the phone.
